This Goddamn Heat

from We're All Adults Here by al Riggs

subscriber exclusive

lyrics

While "wild" is a greener term to put it
This goddamn heat is pounding us
Storybooks catching fire, babies crying
Only hope is parents grounding us

Sprinkle-ers bribing us with sweet release
Digging holes in woodland dirt
Just bury me here, I'm just gonna rest
Until the cool comes hard, so much it hurts

Just bury me here
This goddamn heat
I hope it ends

When you wake up I'll be a street away
Soaking my face in free anointment
I'll come back with news from the front
No need for shoes or past appointment

Wash my hands with caked sweat
Electricity eludes me
Just bury me here in my car
The trash so high you could confuse me

Just bury me here
This goddamn heat
I hope it ends

You could confuse me for
You could confuse me for
You could confuse me for free.
